A great album by MPB-4, and one that shows them absorbing a lot of psychedelic influences, and applying them to the arrangements of their unique baroque vocal style. The record has an amazing spacey feel in its best parts – with an approach that certainly owes something to the contemporary ... (Brazil) read moreCD

A really nice one from Gerry – an oft-overlooked mid 60s session, one that has him working with a sextet that includes Jim Hall, Art Farmer, and Bob Brookmeyer, in addition to usual Mulligan rhythm-mates Bill Crow and Dave Bailey. There's a nice soulful bottom to the set, and stronger ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

One of the best early albums from the Mystic Moods – largely because it really ups the use of sound effects that was begun on the group's first album.

Pivotal work from this incredible Polish composer! "Dies Irae" is Penderecki's haunting oratorio to the memory of those murdered at Auschwitz, and it's an incredibly dark work, filled with atonal orchestrations and richly somber vocal passages. "Polymorphia" is a 1960 ... (Classical) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

A lovely little soundtrack to this French travelogue film – scored by Jean Prodromides with a feel that's as light and whimsical as a journey in a balloon!

An excellent early gem by one of Brazil's greatest singers! The record captures Elis Regina at a prime early stage – when her voice was raw and filled with emotion, and when she was backed by some excellent arrangements that blended jazz, bossa, and more complicated vocal settings. The ... (Brazil) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

An incredible album – and a landmark session that showed that the bossa nova was still alive and well in the 1970s!

A rare bit of samba jazz from Brazil – the only album we've ever seen by this Hammond-lead combo featuring organist Paulo Roberto! Roberto's sound is clean and lean – very much in the spirit of Walter Wanderley from the same period, and backed here with a similar blend of snapping ... (Brazil) read moreLP, Vinyl record album

The first full length album from Dutch reedman Herman Schoonderwalt – a musician pictured with a clarinet on the cover, but who also blows alto and soprano sax on the date as well! Schoonderwalt had appeared on a few of the previous well-circulated Jazz Behind The Dikes series – an ... (Jazz) read moreCD

An incredible album from Brazilian rock legend Raul Seixas – easily one of the most important artists to emerge after the Tropicalia generation – and a singer with a sound that's as striking as his image on the cover!

Wonderful stuff from Nina Simone – working here still with one foot in the jazzier style of early days, but with haunting elements of the later progressive style to come!

(Mono black label pressing with deep groove. Cover has light surface wear and small stain on the bottom)

Prime late 60s work from Dusty Springfield – an excellent American album that compiles some of her best singles from the UK!

The first solo album from then recently departed Blue Cheer guitarist Leigh Stephens – and a great one!

The first-ever album from the legendary Tamba Trio – and the start of an amazing 60s run that really set them apart from other bossa combos of the time!

(Mid 60s mono Mexican pressing. Cover has light wear, and some tape on the seams.)

Romantic bossa work from the lovely Sylvia Telles – an album that predates her 60s albums for Elenco, and which almost has an equal amount of jazz in the mix as well!

Caetano Veloso at the end of the 70s – still sounding wonderful, but in ways that are quite different from his earliest albums!

A really overlooked album from Caetano Veloso – one that's quite different than the more experimental modes of records like his Tropicalia sets, or his Araca Azul record – but with a unique charm that makes it every bit as special as those! The set's quite stripped-down and personal ... (Brazil) read moreCD

A seminal live set that brings together two giants of the Tropicalia scene – Caetano Veloso and Gilberto Gil, recorded here in a rough-edged performance from 1969!

Scott Walker's fifth solo album, and an oft-overlooked gem that really shows some new sides of his talents!

(Vintage UK pressing, in textured cover! Cover has light wear on the edges, a small mark from a sticker in one corner, and some light splitting on the bottom seam.)

A very unusual album from bassist Eugene Wright – one of his few dates as a leader, despite famous work in the Dave Brubeck quartet! The set is great – with very strong work from Wright, who's maybe more soulful than usual – and recording here in New Zealand with a hip quartet ... (Jazz) read moreLP, Vinyl record album
